Seton Shrine Museum

For the most fulfilling experience at our historic site, we recommend that you begin here at our Museum and Visitor Center. Be sure to see our latest exhibit, Sisters Today: A World of Difference.

In our free museum, you’ll find illustrations, anecdotes, and 19th-century artifacts from our archives, including letters written by Elizabeth Ann Seton herself—all telling the story of her remarkable life. You may also view a 12-minute film about her life. From here, take a guided tour of our historic homes and grounds, or feel free to roam and experience our sites at your leisure.
